For the record, I made a simple request of BHD to modify his signature. We were not thrilled with him advertising his new forum on Mercedes-Shop........for obvious reasons.

His response was to post a new thread in OD, quoting my request, and then rail about how unfair it was that he was singled out.

He was banned for disrespecting the forum and it's moderators.

Brian, what was his new forum all about? --OK, nevermind, I saw the link.

We all refer to BenzWorld and to MBCA. How is that different?

Maybe tehre is some hidden stuff going on here that most of us are not aware of...

Still...I hate to see people getting banned.

As much as I disagree with some hippies from Berkeley, I would oppose the banning of any of them.

But I guess rules are rules and eventually we all have to play nice or set up our own playground.

His new forum, where he is the webmaster, is identical to this one. He claims to devote more attention to the older M/B.........prior to 1986.

Send me an e-mail if you wish to have the address.

Since this was the third time that he violated the rules of the forum and disrespected the moderators, the ban is permanent.

He was warned several times in the past and banned temporarily on two separate occasions for similar transgressions. We've given him more than enough rope.............

Ya just can't help yourself can you?

So you wouldn't want to see anyone banned? Is that why you were saying "Oh hey moderators, isn't cmac maybe breaking the rules here?"

BHD's gone but we got you to channel his spirit.

So, you finally admit that you are a hippie from Berkeley? Otherwise, how could you possibly take umbrage at the reference "hippie from Berkeley?"

Research shows that a significant drop in the male hormone testosterone has several noticeable effects. Included among these effects are:

1. Crankiness

2. Mendacity

3. Asisine behavior

4. Cognitive impairment

The proof, as the expression goes, is in the pudding.

Hey hippie, I'll mail you $20.00, good for your next tofu burger if you can post here where I've either told the moderators that you are breaking the rules and/or asked them to ban you. Just tell me the address of your commune.

Finally, I only wish that I could channel BHD. The man has more on the ball and far more common sense than any aging hippie-wanna-be from Berkeley could ever have.

But you already knew that.
